1887 Land Allotment of the Pottawatomie , Prairie Band

Here follows the list of the members of the Prairie band,
together with the allotments assigned to each member by Henry J.
Aten, of Hiawatha,
Kan., who was the allotting agent. There are a number of notations on
this roll. They follow the names to which they refer. They have
been inserted by the
superintendent, Mr. A. R. Snyder, to indicate the disposition of the
allotments up to this time. They are not a part of the original
roll as made by the allotting
agent. These notations are in all cases enclosed by parentheses.

This is the official roll as completed by Mr. Aten, abt 1905 and it is
one of the most valuable documents connected with the reservation
of the Prairie band.------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I have eliminated those not living in the area.
This is a great roll to find Indian names as they adopted English names.

1863 Potawatomie Land Roll

This roll was copied by Merrie Pinick from microfilm (Ms Box 733) at
the Kansas State Historical library at Topeka. The original book
was
the personal property of William H. True , St. Mary's .
It was loaned by his Grand-daughter in-law to the historical library 8
, Jul 1969 for microfilming. Mr. True added some names to the original
list. I thank Delores Abrams for the paper copy.

This seems to be all of the Pottawatomie, to include those that took
their land on the Reservation and those that became Citizens, But the
Roll does not separate them. It does say that those on the Reservation
numbered 780 , so that leaves about that many that took their land
around St. Mary's and became Citizens.

These are from the 1867
additional allotments- I can't place these-by name but most likely go
by the number indicated. But I'll leave them for you to figure out.
